Advice-what do you think of these girls names??

[Blackforestdonuts]

Hi, we are looking for a girl's name that isnt common, but also not too 'out there'. Choices so far are...
Lyra
Carys
Eleanor
Helena
Beatrice

Thanks!

Lyra or Carys if you want unusual.

Eleanor, Helena, Beatrice all quite ordinary/popular by comparison.

A name that I have always liked is Hebe, but I think that I'm in a minority of one with that!

I think its because I'm a Local Editor? Maybe. I'll check with MNHQ.

Aww Skoggy you have reverted to plain ol' white now, have you showered?!

Lol actually... yes. :)
Haha I don't know whats going on with my posts to be honest.

Helena. Not many of them around, but not off-the-wall but lovely and elegant. Would shorten to Nell, but it's a name that does all through your daughter's life from babyhood to serious career.

One our name checks was 'Would it fit with Chief Justice _. Helena would.

WhiteHairReally I love that check! I had to mutter my 2 DD's names to see if they fit.

I like Eleanor best, fab name elegant but strong - think Eleanor of Aquitane, she was amazing. And yes, I have one.

I like all your other suggestions too but Eleanor is the best.
